Grew up on Sylvan Avenue in Sale (Manchester, England) - the same street the Gibb brothers of Bee-Gees fame grew up on twenty years before. Worked as animator of Cosgrove Hall who made Wind in The Willows and also the Dangermouse cartoons. After a number of aborted bands in the early eighties, finally got a group together with school friend Ian Brown (vocals) (Ancoats, Lancashire 20/2/63). In 1984, the embryonic Stone Roses played their first gigs in Sweden. Squire was lead guitarist with the Stone Roses until 1996 when he left to form his own band The Seahorses. This group continued with numerous UK Top 20 hits and a number one album until 1999 when the group disbanded. The whereabouts of John Thomas Squire at time of writing are unknown. Hide
